Palo Alto University

What are the security measures and safety resources available for students at Palo Alto University?

Palo Alto University students should use the university's published emergency and misconduct-reporting procedures to identify the right contact for an incident. A general description of campus security is no substitute for the current procedures and contacts applicable to the building or clinical site a student uses.

The university's annual security report is the appropriate place to check its Clery Act disclosures, including reported crimes, covered locations, and safety policies. Such reports count incidents under defined federal rules; they do not measure every risk a student might encounter. Students should also identify the university's Title IX reporting and support contacts and, for an immediate emergency, call 911. Because clinical placements can occur away from campus, students should learn the host site's emergency procedures as well.
